Dear Ma, Pa and Ruth.

The weather has been fine here today. It wasn’t so cold here today. I hope you received the money order I sent O.K. I think the train was held up here so the mail didn’t arrive her today. I guess I will get the letters tomorrow. The package of apples that you sent came today. They sure are swell apples. I guess I will get a letter from Art tomorrow too. I went to the show here at Shelburne tonight. It was a pretty good picture. They only charge ten cents. It is quite a bit colder in the mornings here. How is the weather in Vancouver these days? I received two letters that Art mailed when I left Toronto. They must have been held up in the mail all this time. This week seems to have gone pretty fast. How is Joe Keegan making out these days? I haven’t been downtown here this week yet. I am O.K. I hope Ma, Pa and Ruth that you are all O.K. Well that is about all for today. I will write again tomorrow.

Love to all,

Rubert.
